Proposal: Control your destiny

===Elevators===
There are two Elevators which can move to various Floors of the Building, the locations of which are tracked in the GNDT as Elevator1 and Elevator2.

The two Elevators shall never be on relatively prime Floors, which means that at any time, the greatest common divisor of the Elevators’ Floors shall be greater than 1.

The two Elevators shall never be on any floor below the 20th Floor.

(For example, if Elevator1 is on 20, Elevator2 may only be on 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, or 20.)

For every enacted Proposal that a Gostak has authored, e may once change the location of either Elevator to eir location within 24 hours of the enactment. When e does this, the Elevators shall still follow the restrictions set earlier in this rule.

Add the following to the end of the Rule “Movement”:

*Often, any Gostak may take an Elevator to move to another floor if e is on the same floor as that Elevator. Taking an Elevator moves both the Gostak and Elevator to the target Floor and increases the Gostak‘s stigma by 1.

Add the following to the line in the Rule “The Building” that starts “2nd Floor - Senior Management”:

Unless the Gostak is the Avzur of the DPG e belongs to or has at least one Cheese, any Gostak on this floor may only use consonants in eir Proposals.

Add the following to the line in the Rule “The Building” that starts “3rd Floor - Human Resources”:

Unless the Gostak is the Daleph of the DPG e belongs to, any Gostak on this floor may not perform any action that increases eir Stigma.

Create two non-player rows of the GNDT, Elevator1 and Elevator2.

Set the YouAreHere of Elevator1 and Elevator 2 to “20th Floor - Lobby”

"Nomic is a game in which changing the rules is a move. In that respect it differs from almost every other game. The primary activity of Nomic is proposing changes in the rules, debating the wisdom of changing them in that way, voting on the changes, deciding what can and cannot be done afterwards, and doing it. Even this core of the game, of course, can be changed."
